This past week, Claymont students like you have come together to collaborate on the official Claymont Minecraft Server. Here are some highlights of builds from this past week that students are working on. We plan to continue posting progress made on the server by students who play.

Last Wednesday, we held a special Seniors Night event to bring graduating seniors together on the server. Since then, we have had several cool builds on the server, but this week we're going to check out some builds exclusively created by Claymont Seniors.

Come join us on Minecraft from the hours of 3PM - 11PM!

If you want to play with your classmates, just fill out the following application: https://forms.gle/fzyAK66Y79TTvp2h6

Once you are accepted, your Minecraft account will be able to access the server by launching your Minecraft: Java Edition client, heading over to the "Multiplayer" tab, clicking "Add Server," and typing in mc.claymontesports.com into the "Server Address" box.

If you have any questions, or wonderful screenshots of your own email wbonanno@claymontschools.org!

We will be having a Zoom meeting Monday, May 18th @ 6:00pm for those interested in trying out for cheerleading. Please contact Sharon at 330-340-0541, Amber at 330-340-6942, Shannon at 330-340-3471, or Courtney at 330-340-4303 for the Zoom meeting information.

PLEASE SHARE WITH THOSE WHO MAY NOT HAVE INTERNET ACCESS. If you don't have access to Internet, let one of the coaches know so that we can give you your time and location of practice. Only 8 girls, one coach, and one instructor will be at each one-hour practice.

This week, we plan on holding a special get-together for graduating seniors at 5PM on Wednesday, May 13th. If you are a senior and have access to Minecraft: Java Edition, log in to say some goodbyes to your classmates and possibly create a life-long gaming friendship (which are especially useful during quarantine)! Anyone online during this special event will get an in-game surprise, so make sure to log in if you can.

Meet Your Teacher!

My name is Mrs. Hookway and I am thrilled to be officially joining the Claymont Mustang family! Before accepting this position, I spent the latter half of the 2018-19 school year here at Claymont as a long-term sub and held a similar position at another school in the area.

I am originally from Clinton, Ohio and graduated from Malone University with a B.A. in Creative Writing in 2015. I later chose to pursue certification to teach English Language Arts grades 7-12 as well as pursue completing my Master's in Education. I love teaching at the High School level because my students are so ready to explore the world both in school and outside of the classroom. My goal is to guide them to find their passion while fostering a love of reading and positive communication skills.

I'm excited for a fresh start to the school year and to get to know all of you!
